Earlier sunsets mean dramatic shadows on the way home from work.

Wall of Windows
Summer may officially run from solstice to equinox, but I think we’re all in agreement that summer practically runs from Memorial Day to Labor Day in the United States. June, July, and August are the summer months.
I found nightfall had occurred while I was still at dinner with friends last night and I knew the truth that the End of Summer is here. For this professor, that means back to school. Time to finish that syllabus, I guess.
Brothers Watching the Game
A classic American moment: two brothers watching a baseball game together. (In this case, the Hartford Yard Goats.)
#GRIDLIFE Corvette
Corvettes were unsurprisingly in abundance at #GRIDLIFE Circuit Legends, but the particular livery of this GT car combined perfectly with motion blurs.
Family Driftmobile
Last weekend brought #GRIDLIFE Circuit Legends to Lime Rock Park and I went full photographer, including a new circularly polarized filter that reveals new details, like the driver and passenger inside this drifting Volvo wagon.
Maó by Night
Docked boats, harborside establishments, and tall cliffs look like the ideal Mediterranean setting for a cartoon bear’s (or perhaps pig’s, but we know that’s the Adriatic) fictional home base.
Dawn Greets Out Arrival to Maó
On the deck of the Wind Star, the arrival of dawn matched our arrival into the deepwater harbor of Maó. The details on either shore (captured in this more-than-30,000-pixel-wide panorama) are well worth clicking through to the full-sized image.
Small (by the Standards of the Terminal)
Though the Wind Star felt like a plenty-large ship while we traveled aboard her, docking at typical cruise ship terminals (an entirely novel experience for me) demonstrated that she was far smaller than common cruise ships.
Evening Lights in Bombay Beach
This little town on the shores of the Salton Sea is only a few blocks in each direction, a sort of echo of what might have been in a different ecological timeline. My favorite detail of the image, though, are the other lights away on the far shore of the Sea, just beneath the mountains, suggesting another world still out there.
Salton Sea Ω
When I added the “Ω” to the title of this image, I imagined endings across multiple dimensions of time: Certainly, a sunset is the end of a day, but I was also thinking on the longer scale of how the slow march of evaporation and desert climate are continuously shrinking the Salton Sea. In a more personal sense, this was likely to be my last visit to the Sea—at least in anything like its current state. All of those combined finalities made this one worthy of being the omega.
Car Guys: Chevy vs. Ford
When it comes to classic car guys, the Chevy (wagon) versus Ford (truck) debate leads to some serious vehicle comparisons in the evening California sun.
Grocery Store/Cathedral
Everyday life continues, even amidst the drama and history of cities like Palma.
Summoning Above Hartford
That light in the sky is some strange and eerie scattering during a storm over the city that brought to mind nothing more than the sorts of occult summonings found in films like “Ghostbusters” or “To Cast a Deadly Spell.” Perhaps I’ve been playing too much Deadlock lately.
Rainbows Within Cathedral of Santa Maria of Palma
Stained glass spreads an array of colors over visitors to the eighth largest church nave in the world.
Sunset Reflected in the Windows of Bushnell Tower
I.M. Pei’s Bushnell Tower is a palette for late-spring sunsets and clear skies in downtown Hartford.
